Description

The BIM Manager is the operational owner of the firm’s Building Information Management (BIM) capability, responsible for the reliability, consistency, and continuous improvement of BIM as a firmwide delivery capability across a multi-office architecture firm. This role serves as the firm’s primary BIM operations leader and Revit subject matter expert, providing training, technical support, standards development, and knowledge sharing. The BIM Manager acts as a critical bridge between design teams, IT Operations, and Design & Innovation groups to ensure BIM practices are consistent, usable and aligned with long‑term firm objectives. As NAC advances its data and automation efforts, this role supports the operational implementation and stewardship of BIM‑related data practices and automation solutions. Working within the firm’s broader design technology and data strategy, the BIM Manager owns BIM execution and adoption, exercising judgment to balance consistency, efficiency and project realities while maintaining firmwide standards and data quality.

Key Responsibilities
  • Firm‑Wide Revit Training & Capability Development: Focus on building firmwide BIM capability through training, guidance and knowledge reuse; develop, implement, and continuously refine a firmwide Revit training program; create structured learning paths for different roles; deliver training via live sessions, recorded content, written guides and project‑based coaching; evaluate staff proficiency and identify opportunities for skill development.
  • Own BIM as a firmwide operational system, establishing clear expectations for how BIM is used, identifying breakdowns or risk, and intervening when standards, workflows, or project conditions require adjustment.
  • Translate firmwide design technology direction into practical, usable BIM guidance for project teams.
  • Monitor the health, scalability, and adoption of BIM practices and identify operational gaps or risks.
  • Exercise operational authority to retire ineffective BIM practices, simplify complex workflows and standardize approaches when variation introduces risk or inefficiency.
  • Provide firmwide troubleshooting and support for Revit and BIM‑related issues, including model performance, collaboration workflows, standards compliance and project setup.
  • Assist project teams in resolving complex modeling, documentation, and coordination challenges.
  • Serve as escalation authority for complex or systemic BIM issues, diagnosing root causes and implementing durable solutions rather than project‑specific fixes.
  • Proactively identify recurring issues and implement preventative solutions, templates or automation.
  • Serve as the firm’s owner of BIM standards execution, working closely with the Revit Standards committee to ensure standards, templates and libraries are usable, enforced and refined.
  • Own the day‑to‑day execution and usability of BIM standards by maintaining Revit templates, family content libraries and related guidance.
  • Monitor how standards perform in real project conditions and lead improvements based on data.
  • Act as the firm’s accountable steward for BIM and design model data, including COBie, defining what “ready for use” means and ensuring data structure, consistency and completeness meet expectations.
  • Assist and train project teams in COBie asset data management, including data structure, model setup and coordination.
  • Partner with design technology and data governance stakeholders to align BIM practices with broader enterprise data standards.
  • Support the integration of asset data into BIM workflows to facilitate handover, facilities management and long‑term building operations.
  • Collaborate with the Design Technology Manager to translate priorities into BIM‑specific operational changes and automation.
  • Design, prototype and deliver BIM‑specific automation solutions that improve efficiency and consistency firmwide.
  • Evaluate the operational impact of emerging BIM‑related tools, provide recommendations to inform technology decision‑making.
  • Coordinate with IT Operations and Data and Innovation teams to ensure solutions are scalable, supported and sustainable.
